Independent...or Alone? Macy longed for independence her whole life. Maybe marrying Arthur to escape her home hadn't been the best plan, but it seemed good enough at the time. Now, pregnant and abandoned in a diner far from anyone she knows, Macy must start life all over again. Relying on the mercy of the diner's owners, she begins to put things back together. Macy must make her own decisions for the first time in her adult life-but it isn't all it's cracked up to be. And with the too-alluring Toby at her side instead of her husband, she's discovering those decisions harder to make than ever. All too soon the illusion of freedom comes crashing down when she realizes her family back home might lose everything if she doesn't return. She'd married Arthur to get away from those responsibilities, so how can she face ending up where she started? With her grandmother's lessons on faith coming to mind again for the first time in years, Macy has to learn what freedom really is...and which road will lead her to where she ought to have been all along.
